BOE beauty review

So theres a new brand in BIG W called BOE and everything from that brand is $2 AUD.
So for $2 i decided to try the jumbo wind up lips. 



 I got it in the colour #22 Boudoir Pink Its kind of a mauve pink and well, its a really nice colour. It looks similar to the revlon balm stains, the Clinique chubby sticks and those Face of Australia jumbo lip crayons so thats why i decided to try it. 

When i swatched it on my hand, it came off slightly more pink than it seemed in the tube, the finish was glossy and it seemed pretty nice. But when i applied it on my lips, it sank into the lines of my lips and it seemed to look cakey. It smelt like childrens fake makeup and i just didnt like it. The colour was  great but it wasn't even on my lips. It also did not last and created a weird ring inside on my bottom lip. And as it faded, it was blotchy and looked horrible.

Do i recommend this? no, but you can try it if you like since its just $2

Bottom line
- It smelts bad (like fake makeup)
- It doensnt look good on the lips
- Bad lasting power

i give it a 3/10 because it looked good on my hand but not my lips, which is where its suppose to be applied. It also smelt bad and didn't last but it had a nice colour and it was glossy.
